Ever wonder if someone actually got your voicemail? Irvine-based YouMail has a neat new feature to provide "voicemail receipts" to callers who leave you a message on the voicemail service, allowing callers to get a text, view and hear the message they left, and also add themselves to your caller ID list. YouMail, which said it started testing the feature in January, said the new feature has been so popular with testers that the service will be provided as a default on the service. YouMail's add on voicemail services--which work with any carrier--provide enhance voicemail, voicemail transcription, custom greetings, and much more for users. YouMail, which is backed by both venture and angel investors, is led by Alex Quilici.
